Though many had given up hope, the long-awaited first Amoeba
CD has finally arrived.At times Gothic,
at times Industrial, at times Noise, all the time fun!Presented here as they were originally
performed, improvised exclusively, no two compositions are ever exactly the
same (you'll swear they are, but you'll have to prove that for yourself)!Occasionally noxious, recorded under
less-than-ideal circumstances, and under a band member's parents' first floor,
audio technology has finally unearthed Amoeba, rendering their music
presentable apparently.Amoeba denies
all responsibility for your speakers and stereo system.Sorry!

Definitely not mainstream, though otherwise difficult to
categorize, Amoeba synthesizes elements from Gothic, Industrial, Electronica,
Techno, and Trance, all with a foundation of pure noise.Amoeba ventures fearlessly into a myriad of
sonic galaxies.Many have tried to blaze
a trail into the audio wilderness of the electronic age, and Amoeba presents
their unique explorations unapologetically and with confidence.

Amoeba offers the antidote to produced music.Exclusively engaging in improvised jams, the
band allows any sonic territory into their repertoire.Steering daringly away from pop and
dance-oriented music, they extract every kind of racket out of electronic
instruments, all the while keeping it cloying and genuine.

Hypnagogic, creative.Trip Music, Head Music, Experimental.

Not many musical groups can boast a unique sound.But nothing else is quite like Amoeba.That said, Amoeba is probably not for
everybody.Amoeba's improvisations,
firmly planted away from the mainstream, are nonetheless cloying and at times
even catchy.Each composition describes
transition, ever advancing toward an unknown.

Performing rarely, the Columbus,
Ohio band Amoeba has developed a
unique sound.The group is composed of
three musicians: Michael Sliclen, playing synthesizer and Chapman Stick; Adam
McKinley, on synthesizer and rhythm programming; and Jeff Dickens, vocalist,
also playing guitar and synthesizer.Though founded in Industrial and Gothic, Amoeba forays into a myriad of
sonic spaces.

Presented here on their first CD, Amoeba is captured at the
moment of their creative spark.The dark
spaces where Amoeba's creations were born are palpable in these recordings.
